Aye, the superhero lifestyle is a demanding mistress.

That was until I read Mick Foleys books and realized that I wasn't ready for a commitment like that. Anybody that loves the business enough to go through with it has my respect.

Not to mention it seems like the only shows people put on in my area are the super bloody n' gimmicky hardcore matches, I'd much rather get into the more technical high-flying side of it, which it doesn't seem like there is much of a demand for anymore, atleast locally.

Share some good stories if you got 'em.

Oh yea, on topic, I really liked O'haires gimmick with the "Fight Club" mentality, when they put him with Piper I knew it was all over.

Don't waste your time you should go into MMA. At least you will get paid more than the indie circuit.

Word! Perfect examples, Prince Albert, Mark Henry, and probably Tazz.

Ee-YAA!!! Zig-TOO AH!!!

Tommy Oliver is the best one and still knows his stuff. Man he is like what 32 years old. He can still filp and kick, and i think that's probably where i got my kai's from him or Ken Masters from the Street Fighter V anime. Zai yahaa!

The thing that still shocks me today is when, i think i was in 8th grade or high school.. when the red ranger came back. He was over weight and i believe he had a double chin, but he was still able to pull of his moves. He had this priceless look on his face like, Why in the hell did i ever agree to come back and look like a overgrown kid.

MMA match where I had my shoulder ripped apart = $0.00
Pro-wrestling match where I had my knee fucked up = $1.86*
Cool stories to impress the ladies = priceless

*I was working for a cut of the gate, the previous show stunk up the joint and weather turned bitterly cold all of a sudden on an outdoor venue, that was my take for the night.
